Thebaide, in Aegypto, commemoratio plurimorum sanctorum Martyrum, qui in Decii et Valeriani persecutione passi sunt, quando Christianis, optantibus pro Christi nomine gladio percuti, callidus hostis, tarda ad mortem supplicia conquirens, animas cupiebat jugulare, non corpora. Ex eorum numero unus, post equuleos et laminas ac sartagines superatas, melle perunctus, ligatis manibus post tergum, sub ardentissimo sole, fucorum ac muscarum aculeis expositus fuit; alius, inter flores molliter vinctus, cum ad eum, ut concitaret in libidinem, impudidssimum scortum venisset, praecisam morsu linguam in blandientis faciem exspuit.
